. It will list all available folders on your network drive. To create a permanent
link to your network drive, see “Mapping a Network Drive”.
You can copy files to the network drive as if it were a folder on your local drive. Depending on the
bandwidth, you can also open and directly play the files, although we recommend always
transferring the data to your local drive first.
Note
When you have to access multiple folders with different passwords or have modified the
settings without a computer restart, go to Tools and disconnect the temporary network drive
first, before accessing a new folder.
3.1.2 Mapping a Network Drive
Mapping the network drive will allow you to create a permanent link that will be present even after
restarting the computer. This permanent link provides convenient access to your network drive and
can be used to store file within other applications.
If you experience problems when trying to access the shared folders, disconnect all network drives,
reboot your computer, restart your network drive and then try again.
1. Double click on My Computer, go to the Tools menu and select “Map Network Drive…”.
